Vinitaly XLVII - The Super Bowl of Italian Wine

This’ll be quick, as it is late and I’m still packing for Vinitaly – I’ve been going to the Big Show for many years now. It all seems like yesterday. And some of the giants then are just memories now. That’s the way it is, isn’t it?

I’ll be there this year again, with a load of customers and colleagues and friends and a few surprises along the way. Bear with us, internet connections aren’t always so easy to get.

If you come to the Vinitaly 47 and have time, stop by the Bloggers Tête-à-tête Tuesday April 9 at 1:30PM in the new Bloggers area in the Palaexpo building 1st floor. I’ll be there along with first-timer Alder Yarrow, who writes the Vinography wine blog. Bring wine -(we have to have something to blog about, don’t we?)- I'm especially fond of Bellavista...

Alice, Tracie P, and I popped a magnum of the Zanotto Colfondo last night and we were all thinking of you, man... so bummed you are not here with us... There's a bottle of 99 Giacosa with your name on it... travel safe...
